DONS OF TIME: Wherever You Look There You Are


Moving back and forth in time and space, Dons of Time is many things. It is a history lesson, a fictive speculation on time travel, the nature of history, a bit of a romance and just a hint of conspiracy fiction a la Robert Anton Wilson’s Illuminatus Trilogy. In this novel, Guma has given us a well-written and smartly told tale that is both captivating and intellectually provocative.” — Ron Jacobs, Counterpunch

Guma deftly embeds his social and political commentary in a taut, suspenseful, and action-packed time travel story that feels surprisingly contemporary, and what makes Dons of Time so fun are the novel’s many layers. Not to spoil any of the fun, but where else can you find references to HAARP, Theosophy, high-tech time travel, Jack the Ripper, tantric sex, Nikola Tesla, the NSA, Madame Blavatsky, and Burlington’s waterfront neighborhood in a single book?” — Rob Williams, Vermont Independent
